Straighten Your Teeth With Invisalign® From *$39/Week

Your smile is one of the first things people notice. When it feels out of alignment, it can affect more than just appearance. At our practice, we have seen how much a smile can transform confidence and wellbeing. Many patients hesitate to explore traditional orthodontic treatments like metal braces, as it brings back memories of discomfort or self-consciousness. But times have changed.

Invisalign® offers an advanced alternative. Patients across Melbourne and Australia, from teenagers to adults, are opting for this option as it combines effectiveness with comfort and convenience.

If you’ve been considering orthodontic treatment but want something subtle and flexible, Invisalign® may be the answer you’ve been waiting for.

What is
Invisalign®?

Invisalign® is a modern orthodontic option that is almost invisible, removable, and designed to fit seamlessly into everyday life.

Designed to discreetly correct crooked or overcrowded teeth, it uses clear, removable aligners to gently guide your teeth into their ideal position. Almost invisible when worn, these aligners offer a discreet alternative to traditional braces, making them a popular option among adults and teens who prefer a treatment that blends seamlessly into daily life. Each set of aligners is custom-made to fit over your teeth without causing any discomfort.

At Dentists of Ivanhoe, we’re proud to offer Invisalign® to our community, helping patients correct crooked or overcrowded teeth while continuing to eat, speak, and smile with confidence. If you’ve been looking for a way to achieve a straighter, healthier smile without the wires and brackets, we invite you to consult with our team about your suitability.

How Does Invisalign® Work?

Invisalign® treatment works by using a series of custom-made, clear aligner trays to gradually shift the teeth into the desired position. Each set of aligner trays are designed to be changed every 1–2 weeks. Every aligner tray applies gentle pressure, gradually moving your teeth into their planned position. Throughout the process, you’ll have regular check-ins with our team to monitor your progress and make sure everything is moving as expected.

These trays can be easily removed, meaning that you can continue to enjoy your favourite foods and maintain your regular brushing and flossing routine with ease. Put simply, Invisalign® is an ideal way to achieve a well-aligned smile – without causing any disruption to your daily life.

Our Process : What You Can Expect with Invisalign®

At Dentists of Ivanhoe, we go the extra mile to make every smile transformation feel simple, supported and joyful. Here is an outline of what you can expect all through your Invisalign® journey at our Melbourne clinic:

1. INITIAL CONSULTATION TO ASSESS SUITABILITY AND DISCUSS YOUR GOALS AND EXPECTATIONS (30 MINS)

The first step in the Invisalign® treatment process is to have an initial consultation with your dentist at Dentists of Ivanhoe to assess your suitability for the treatment. This will also give you the opportunity to discuss your goals and expectations with your dentist and ask any questions you may have about the treatment.

2. PHOTOS AND DIGITAL SCAN
TO BEGIN Invisalign® JOURNEY (30 MINS)

During this stage, your dentist will take photos and a digital scan of your teeth to help create a customised treatment plan. This information will be used to create a 3D image of your teeth and jaw, which will be used to determine the best course of treatment.

3. PLACEMENT OF ATTACHMENTS AND ISSUING ALIGNERS (60 MINS)

Once the treatment plan has been established, your dentist will place small attachments on your teeth and issue you with your first set of clear aligners. You will wear each set of aligners for one to two weeks, before moving onto the next set. The attachments help to guide the movement of your teeth during treatment, making it more effective.

4. APPOINTMENTS EVERY 4-6 WEEKS UNTIL COMPLETION OF TREATMENT (10-20 MINS EACH)

During your treatment, you will need to attend appointments with your dentist every 4-6 weeks to monitor your progress and receive your next set of aligners. These appointments will typically take between 10-20 minutes and allow your dentist to ensure that your treatment is progressing as expected.

5. COMPLETE TREATMENT - REMOVE ATTACHMENTS, ISSUE RETAINERS, FINAL PHOTOS (60 MINS)

Once your treatment is complete, your dentist will remove the attachments, issue you with a set of retainers, and take final photos to compare with your initial photos. This final appointment will take approximately 60 minutes, and your dentist will provide you with instructions on how to care for your retainers to ensure the longevity of your results.

NOTE:

The length of each appointment and the duration of the entire Invisalign® treatment may vary based on individual cases.

Benefits of Invisalign® Treatment

The Invisalign® treatment presents several benefits that can improve your smile and confidence, including:

Virtually Invisible (and Comfortable!)

The clear plastic aligners are nearly invisible, so no one will know you’re undergoing treatment, while their smooth and sleek design maximises comfort.

Removable.

Invisalign® aligners are crafted from SmartTrack flexible material, allowing for easy removal and placement, unlike the fixed nature of braces. With Invisalign, you can indulge in your favourite foods without restriction.

Less Emergency Appointments.

You won’t have to rush in to see us due to broken braces or wires. The aligners apply gentle pressure to the teeth, so there’s minimal disruption to your daily routine.

Effective.

Invisalign® treatment has a high success rate and is often a preferred option for those looking for Invisalign near Ivanhoe or surrounding suburbs.

Affordable.

While the cost of Invisalign® in Melbourne can vary, it’s often a more affordable option compared to traditional braces, and some dental insurance plans may cover the treatment.

Invisalign® treatment presents an opportunity to enhance your smile with a discreet, personalised, convenient, gentle, and budget-friendly solution.

Am I a Candidate for Invisalign®?

To determine if the Invisalign® treatment is the right choice for you, it is important to consider the following:

  • Dental Concerns: Invisalign® is a highly effective solution for a wide range of orthodontic issues, including crowded or crooked teeth, gaps between teeth, overbites, and underbites.
  • Dental Health: Good oral health is crucial for a successful Invisalign® treatment, so a comprehensive dental examination is recommended.
  • Age: Invisalign® is suitable for both teens over 13 and adults, making it a versatile treatment option for those seeking clear aligners in Ivanhoe and surrounding suburbs.
  • Cost: Invisalign® costs in Melbourne can vary, and it’s essential to have an understanding of the costs involved before beginning treatment. Some dental insurance plans may cover the cost of Invisalign®, and finance options are also available.
  • Commitment: Invisalign® treatment involves an ongoing time commitment, including regular appointments every 4–6 weeks and the requirement to wear the aligners for 22 hours each day.

By taking these factors into account, you can make an informed decision about the suitability of the Invisalign® treatment for your needs and goals.

Invisalign® Cost in Melbourne

Cost is certainly an important factor while considering orthodontic treatment. In fact, it is quite common to find patients searching for ‘cheap Invisalign® Melbourne’ while researching their options.

To make it easier for our patients, we provide clear information on fees, timelines and payment options during the first consultation itself – so that there are no shocks or surprises later on. We also offer a range of payment plans to make your treatment more manageable.
